Making the Best Seed Decisions for Your Acres
Oct 27, 2025
As we head into seed selection season, one thing is clear. Farmers are going to be shopping this year. With tighter margins and unpredictable markets, every input decision matters, and selecting the right seed can make all the difference in maximizing return on investment (ROI). Seed isn’t just another line item; it’s the foundation of next year’s yield.
At Five Star Coop, our focus is on helping growers get the highest yield possible for the best value. This is why we work hard to match the right seed to the right acre, offering a diverse lineup of seed corn and seed soybean genetics suited to different soil types, field histories, and management goals. And when you pair that with our Rate Star Financing, Five Star Bucks and early order discounts, we’re giving you more ways to get the most from every dollar invested.
Here are a few of the top questions our agronomists are getting, along with how Five Star can help you make confident, informed seed decisions.
"What are my bulk seed options?”
When it comes to bulk soybeans, we’re committed to providing options that truly fit your local geography. The varieties that we selected are carefully observed for disease tolerances (like white mold, sudden death syndrome and iron deficiency chlorosis), standability and the right relative maturities for our growing conditions. Don’t worry, we also do not compromise on yield potential. Every product that we offer is chosen for its proven performance and agronomic strengths.
"Why Choose LaunchPoint Seed Treatments?”
If you’re looking for an edge in early-season protection and plant health, our LaunchPoint Complete seed treatment is one of the best tools you can add to your operation. It offers industry-leading control for early diseases like pythium and phytophthora, plus early insect protection.
It also includes a plant growth regulator (PGR), inoculant, and bio fungicide to support root development and overall vigor. And for sudden death syndrome-prone acres, we offer a specialized SDS seed treatment to protect against yield loss right from the start.
"How Can I Maximize My Seed Investment with Five Star Bucks?”
We know that trialing new genetics or expanding your seed portfolio can feel like a risk. That’s why we created Five Star Bucks: a risk-mitigating way to diversify your genetics and stretch your seed dollars further.
You’ll earn up to 2% on your seed purchases and qualify for lower interest rates through Rate Star Financing (as low as 0%)! Combine that with early order discounts, and you have one of the most cost-effective and flexible ways to do seed business with us.
"What’s the Best Way to Make Confident Seed Decisions for 2026?”
At the end of the day, our goal is to help make every farmer make confident, informed seed decisions. These choices include maximizing ROI and setting your operation up for success within the coming seasons.
Our agronomists have access to comprehensive yield and plot data and are ready to help you identify the best-performing products for your specific acres. Whether you’re looking to try something new or fine-tune your current lineup, now’s the perfect time to start the conversation with your Five Star agronomist.
